God our Savior

MIGHTY TO SAVE

I enjoyed spending the day researching what is written in the Holy Bible about The Savior. This hub is a collection of these scriptures for you to relish in and let the Holy Spirit speak to you, confirming who The Savior is.

The Old Testament contains the writings of the Prophets; the New Testament the writings of some of the disciples and Apostles. I imagine how each of them received their inspired writings, how they intimately knew God. Just as the Old Testament patriarchs, the Apostle Paul never laid eyes on Jesus Christ while He walked the earth. On the other hand, the disciples walked, talked and ate with Him. They witnessed His death, resurrection and ascention.

The same message - given by God to His children throughout the ages...simply amazing. May God bless the reading of His Word.

Yes, amen, sister teaches12345! Ps 96:2 comes to mind from the heart of David, "Sing to Yahweh; praise His name; proclaim His salvation day after day."

Yes, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Yashuah Mashiach is Yahweh! (Phil 2:10)

Is 42:8 "I am Yahweh, that is My name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to graven images."

"And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12) HalleluYah!!
